Default How to create a document with 3 columns

I need to create a document with three columns of information on the front and three on the back, landscape orientation, folded such that it creates a six-page folder.



I know I can set "page layout" to 3 columns, but I have a fixed amount of information on each of the 6 pages and when I use "3 columns" it keeps spacing my information down onto the next column whether I want it there or not. I thought I could create a "column sized" (1/3rd of a page) working file, type my information into it, then cut and paste it to a separate file set up as three columns, then repeat for all 6 pages....but that didn't work either.

Is there an easier way to do what I'm trying to do (outside of buying MS Publisher). Thanks!

Use a three column borderless table.
